En tredje våg med matsutake i Ukraina - a third wave of matsutake (mацутаке) in Ukraine

Photos: Sergiy Kozlan

(The photos above shows matsutake picked outside Kosiv in southern Ukraine in mid-September 2022. Tricholoma matsutake. The first known findings of true matsutake in Ukraina was made during 2020. The forest in this area consists of fir (Abies) and beech (Fagus) trees, no pine trees are present. I'm most grateful to Mr Sergiy Kozlan for letting me use his nice photos.)

På bilderna ovan syns goliatmusseron funnen i södra Ukraina (nära Kosiv) plockade i mitten av september 2022. Det första kända fyndet av matsutake i Ukraina gjordes under 2020. Inga tallar finns i denna skog, utan istället växer här ädelgran och bok.
